Many parents struggle with getting kids interested in urgent global challenges, from hunger to climate change. Often, these topics appear too abstract or intimidating for young minds. A new children’s book series by agriculture expert and sustainability champion Nate Blum is smashing that notion.
“Kids have told me they never realized how their choices can help make a difference,” said Blum regarding enthusiasm for his popular Sorgho Squad book series. Blending entertainment with education, three installments follow kid adventurers saving the world — one ancient cereal grain at a time.
